My father passed away in 2006, he had a will that i filed in probate, two things, first i\'m the executrix of the will and also he left me the condo, which i lived in with him, until he passed away at 81. there was a mortagage on the condo, in his name, and the deed is in his name and my mother, who passed away 6 years. i know i own the condo, because he left it to me. but i\'m trying to now get a mortagage in my name, which i have been approved for, but broker came back to me and said that i need to have a deed prepared. and being that i\'m the executrix and the borrow, how do i go about rewriting the deed?
Sorry to hear about your father's death.
You need to draft the deed with the help of a lawyer for transferring the property in your name. After that get it recorded with the county recorder's office along with the copy of the will.

Hi Dcollins,
Welcome to the forums.
Since you have already filed the Will, then I feel you should wait or some more time till the probate is completed. Then you will be getting the ownership rights on the property. I guess you will not require a deed to be prepared after that. The broker will be willing to help you search for a suitable lender once you get the title to the property.
Thanks,
Sara.
